I have looked at the examples mentioned in other threads but I have not found any webbsite where the posts in the blog have generated a new comment in the forum. Are there any such examples? It seems to me that all of them have links back and forth but where is bbSync used? And using another language than English seems to have given problems to many more than me.</p> <p>I really liked the idea of generating forum posts from a blog which would give a more equal discussion than comments to a blog. But where can I find a working example in a non-English language? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/advice-on-integrating-wp-blog-and-bbpress-in-swedish#post-13320 Wed, 23 Jan 2008 01:35:35 +0000 fel64 13320@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>You need to have wordpress and bbpress more fully integrated, that is, require wordpress before bbpress is run in bb's config.php file. I think all that is in that link, under the last section. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/advice-on-integrating-wp-blog-and-bbpress-in-swedish#post-13298 Tue, 22 Jan 2008 13:09:57 +0000 goranlin 13298@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Thanks for help.

My wp install is in a folder /wordpress/, while bb is in the forums subdomain.

I suspect all the answers are somewhere in the support pages for wp and bbpress but it is not easy to put all the pieces together and find out what to do. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/advice-on-integrating-wp-blog-and-bbpress-in-swedish#post-13282 Mon, 21 Jan 2008 20:43:04 +0000 goranlin 13282@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Thank you for your answer. Localization demands that there is a translated .mo-file for the theme to work, does it not?</p> <p>I like the WP-K2beta2 theme but I am unsure how to change color scheme. Some wp-themes are easier to change color for than others I think, is that correct?</p> <p>I think what I want to achieve can be done with the wp plugin bbsync but wp and bbpress are supposed to be integrated for that and I do not know how to do that. Is it a good start to first create a folder called blog and place wp in there and them create a new folder within that called bbpress and place bbpress in there?</p> <p>All suggestion and advice are most welcome, this is my first attempts with WordPress and bbPress. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/advice-on-integrating-wp-blog-and-bbpress-in-swedish#post-13281 Mon, 21 Jan 2008 18:19:42 +0000 fel64 13281@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>It doesn't matter what theme you use, you can localise your installs of bbpress and wordpress to translate everything to Swedish. Sandbox is a commonly used theme starting point but I'd just start with whatever looks most similar to the end-effect you want to achieve.</p> <p>Do you have any questions about what you're trying to do? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/advice-on-integrating-wp-blog-and-bbpress-in-swedish#post-13270 Mon, 21 Jan 2008 09:49:05 +0000 goranlin 13270@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I want to create a WordPress blog and integrate it with a discussion forum in bbPress, They are said to work well together. Every new post in the blog should generate a new discussion thread in the forum. If possible I would also like to have a more static first page in the blog where new posts occupy perhaps half of the area. I would also like to have some space for short forms of RSS-feeds from other websites and blogs.</p> <p>I like to do all of it in Swedish and want to do it as easily as possible. It is then practical to use a theme that is already translated into Swedish, right? I think K2 looks clean and is translated and ready for many plugins. It is supposed to be easy to customize so changing the color scheme into someting like I have in my present blog is hopefully easy? (Görans digitaltips <a href="http://gorandig.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">http://gorandig.blogspot.com</a>)</p> <p>I post this in both WP and bbPress forum since it concerns both.</p> <p>All advice is gratefully recieved! Address to blogs and forums doing similar things are most welcome! </p>
